      Yep plus the male either dies and gets eaten or gets fused to the females body or something

        Life isn’t a gift when you’re a male insect… giving life, on the other hand, is just a horrible curse.

      Is cooler to live in the time where that is the male, or where the male is just another organ within the fish?
